I was a priest in the city-state era

After Roy left with the fifty teenagers, Philomela couldn't help but ask Procne.

"Sister, was what I said just now too much?"

Procne shook her head and said.

"Since we accepted the belt given by the priest Roy yesterday, we need to keep a distance from him to prevent him from having any inappropriate thoughts."

Philomela sighed and said.

"I really don't understand why my mother strictly restricts us and requires us to keep a distance from men outside our family."

"We have heard so many stories about women being attacked in the wild. Do you really think those are false stories? Philomela! Men are more dangerous than you think. If we have been attacked, we will not be able to marry the leader of a large tribe or the king of a city-state."

"Will you be happy if you marry the leader of a large tribe or the king of a city-state? I think my current life is very happy, so I want to stay with my father, mother, brother Erechtheus and sister."

At the foot of the Acropolis.

Roy led fifty teenagers to run around the Acropolis, leading the slogans while running.

"Defend Athens! Defend the goddess!"

"Defend Athens! Defend the goddess!"

"Defend Athens! Defend the goddess!"

Although the teenagers didn't know the meaning of shouting slogans, they could only shout along since Roy shouted slogans.

After running around the Acropolis three times, Roy took the teenagers to a forest to rest.

After the teenagers sat on the grass to rest, Roy walked alone to the hillside behind the forest and turned his head to look at the territory of the Athens tribe of about 100 square kilometers.

The Athens tribe not only lived on the Acropolis, but the territory of the Athens tribe was also surrounded by four mountains.

These four mountains are Mount Imitos in the south, Mount Pendelli in the east, Mount Parnitha in the north, and Mount Aigaleo in the west.

The area surrounded by these four mountains is the territory of the Athens tribe.

After observing the territory of the Athens tribe, Roy returned to the forest under the hillside and rested with the fifty teenagers for half an hour, and then continued to lead the teenagers in running training.

When they ran to the fifteenth lap, Pandion, who was patrolling the territory, appeared in front of Roy and others with Erechtheus and a group of guards.

"Chief Pandion!"

Roy brought the teenagers to Pandion and said.

"You always patrol the territory in person, which is really hard. My companions and I are training our physical fitness. You can give us the task of patrolling the territory, so that we can patrol the territory while training our physical fitness."

Pandion smiled and shook his head and said.

"Priest Roy! Patrolling the territory is related to the safety of all the people in the Athenian tribe. Even if I don't patrol the territory in person, I will give the task of patrolling the territory to my son Erechtheus. You keep running with your companions. What is the purpose of doing this?"

"I want to use running to train my companions' physical fitness and increase their endurance. Because doing so can increase our chances of surviving on the battlefield."

Pandion nodded and said.

"You and your companions eliminated the pirates without any injuries, which has proved the role of paper armor in war. In the future, all soldiers of the Athenian tribe will fight in paper armor. If you train your companions' physical fitness and endurance, it will indeed increase their chances of survival on the battlefield. In the future, I will let all soldiers of the Athenian tribe be trained according to your method."

"Captain Pandion, are you treating me and my companions as test subjects? If you want to use my method to train soldiers, you have to reward me with some property as compensation."

"Okay! If the Athenian soldiers train according to your method in the future, I will give you 10,000 kilograms of food as your reward."

After accepting Roy's request, Pandion said with a serious expression.

"Priest Roy! I am already preparing for the expedition. If you really want to take your companions with me, come to my house on the third night to attend the expedition meeting."

After that, Pandion left with Erechtheus and the guards.

After watching Pandion and others leave, Roy turned to the teenagers and said.

"Dear companions! If you don't want to die on the battlefield, come and train with me these days!"

In a blink of an eye, it was the third day.

Roy and fifty young men trained combat skills in the temple square in the morning, and ran at the foot of the Acropolis in the afternoon to train physical fitness and increase endurance.

After night fell, Roy came to Pandion's stone house with a lantern.

Walking into the candlelit hall of the stone house, Roy saw that not only Pandion and Erechtheus were sitting at the largest stone table in the hall, but also two small leaders of the Athenian tribe.

Perhaps because there were too many guests, the women of Pandion's family - Pandion's wife Zeuxippe and two daughters Procne and Philomela, did not appear in the hall.

Seeing Roy coming in, Pandion took the initiative to say.

"Priest Roy, come and sit next to me. Let's enjoy the wine and food while discussing tomorrow's war."

Roy followed Pandion's arrangement and sat down next to Pandion. The maids immediately placed wine, barbecue, cakes and other food on the stone table.

Led by Pandion, the crowd discussed how to attack the Eleusis tribe while drinking and eating meat.

The Eleusis tribe is located in the northwest of the Athens tribe, about 40 miles away from the Acropolis.

A small leader spoke first.

"Chief Pandion! The distance between us and the Eleusis tribe is only forty miles. If we march quickly, we will set out at dawn tomorrow and arrive at the Eleusis tribe's base in the afternoon."

This is obviously a stupid proposal.

Roy frowned and said.

"If we march quickly, our soldiers will definitely be very tired when we arrive at the Eleusis tribe's base. If the people of the Eleusis tribe discover us and take the initiative to attack us, can we defeat the Eleusis tribe with weak soldiers?"

The little chief who made the proposal just now was speechless, obviously realizing how stupid his proposal was.

Pandion looked at Roy and said.

"The Eleusis tribe has developed into a large tribe of 3,000 people, and their soldiers are no less powerful than our Athens tribe. If we use tired soldiers to attack the Eleusis tribe, we will definitely lose. Priest Roy, how do you think we should fight this war?"

"It's simple. We should march normally so that the soldiers can maintain their combat effectiveness."

"Your suggestion is only to march normally?"

Roy shook his head and said.

"We should not only march normally, but also march at night. By marching during the day and at night, we can unexpectedly reach the Eleusis tribe's base and rest directly near the Eleusis tribe's base. When the sun rises, we can launch a surprise attack on the Eleusis tribe that has just woken up."

After Roy finished speaking, Pandion, Erechtheus and the two small leaders all widened their eyes and showed shocked expressions.
